HONOR BRIGHT CAST Mrs. Lucy Barrington Catherine Vondette Richard Barrington Roswell Burrows The Rt. Rev. William Carton Leland Walker Peggy Carton Viola Schurry Honor Bright Hazel Booth Rev. James Schooly Henry Snyder Bill Drum Harold Mertz Tot Marvel Mary Hart Watts Byron Staffeld Annie Vivian Day Maggie Ruth Beckbissinger Foster Merrill MacDonald Michael Burton Ross Simpson Dale Bennett The contribution of the Seniors this year of Honor Bright, a three act comedy by Mere- dith and Kenyon Nicholson, was all that could be asked for. The plot centers around Richard Barrington, who leaves college and starts for home ac- companied by Tot Marvel, a chorus girl, who is his fiancee, and whom he hopes will be accepted by his family. Tot is entangled in the meshes of the law and does not arrive at Richard ' s home. Honor Bright, a college graduate who is selling books to obtain money to take her M. A. degree at Radcliffe, walks into the Barrington ' s parlor and is mistaken for Tot. Complications arise and provide many humorous situations, especially when Tot arrives, as she is a typical Broadway type. Bill Drum an old pal of Tot ' s, thoroughly understands the situation and solves it by marrying Tot. Consequently, Honor and Richard are brought closer together, and the old, old story is retold once more. Many amusing situations were provided by Tot, Drum, Maggie, and Foster. Much com- mendation is due the participants in view of their splendid portrayals. The play was held in the Auditorium, May 4th The able coaching of Mr. Emil Howe was not in vain, for his efforts were well rewarded.

THE WREN WILLIAM C. DEMBINSKE, Dramatic Editor The presentation of Booth Tarkington ' s The Wren this year was heralded as one of the best productions ever given by a Junior class. The histrionic ability displayed by the actoi-s in characterizing some very difficult roles would have done justice to a much older group of individuals. The scene of this comedy character drama is laid in the Eastern coast, the action taking place in a boarding house owned by a Cap ' n Olds, a retired seaman, and operated by his daugh- ter, Seeby. One of the star boarders is a young and handsome artist, Hugh Roddie. A transient, Mrs. Frazee comes to the house to spend a few weeks to regain her imaginary lost health. She be- comes infatuated with the young artist who is about to succumb to her wiles when the unex- pected and timely arrival of her husband, coupled with the ingenuity of Seeby Olds, causes him to find himself. Seeby ' s cleverness finally wins for her the affections of Hugh Roddie and the happy ending is assured for a delighted audience. Francis, the head porter, and Mrs. Freeheart, are responsible for the humor in the play, their interpretations being delightful and giving the play the necessary color. Too much cannot be said for Mr. Howe and his able assistant. Miss Dillon, whose tireless efforts in coaching the play were in a great measure responsible for its success. The play was held at the North Intermediate School and nearly a thousand people were in attendance. THE CAST Cap ' n Olds Seeby, his daughter .
